Description

A new and original take on the iconic story of man meets giant ape in the biggest and hairiest parody of all time! The intrepid explorer Indiana Bones is hired to track down King Dong, legendary for his sheer massiveness. Accompanied by his gay best friend, fey Ray, and the platinum blonde Ann Darling, there to lure Dong into the open, they set off into uncharted territory. As the story develops, dodging intrusions from dinosaurs, Nazis, Orcs and a myriad of characters and plots from movies both classic and contemporary, it inevitably leads up to a king-sized climax and lots of monkeying around on an American landmark - yes, Dong climbs the famous Hollywood sign and is buzzed by spaceships.

First Sentence

In the bustling port of Old Hokum, an old tramp lay against the quay, filthy, neglected, rust-streaked and leaking from every seam.
